    What a tosser - seriously, if you want to stop child porn then target the avenues where child porn is distributed, or better yet devote more resources into stopping distributors and producers at the source!
    Here's hoping the election is called before the bill is passed and the balance of power in the Senate goes to people/parties who recognise this as BS...and that the Liberals don't decide to get onside with this one.
    God I hope he loses his seat, but I doubt it.

    EDIT - the comment from ACL spokeman Lyle Shelton on this article seems kinda telling...
    Meanwhile, Australian Christian Lobby spokesman Lyle Shelton says the group opposes the new [.xxx] domain because it sees it as further legitimising the pornography industry.

    "Anything which further mainstreams and legitimises the porn trade is obviously not a healthy thing for children," he said.

    "It is not a healthy thing for the wider society because it just continues to take us down this path where profiting off naked young women continues to gather acceptance in our society and of course we are seeing the pornification of culture seeping into our everyday lives."

    He says he hopes all online pornography will be banned in Australia through an internet service provider-based filter.
